The Indian Army and the Making of Punjab
Author: Rajit K. MazumderPublisher: Orient Blackswan
ISBN: 9788178240596
Category : India
Languages : en
Pages : 322
Book Description
A handful of Englishment controlled the vast British Indian empire for nearly 200 years. Throughout this period, the colonials who ran the empire (viceroys, bureaucrats, military men, police officers) constituted a miniscule minority of the Indian population. That a few thousand British men dominated so many million Indians for so long via native collaborators (feudal princes, educated babus, peasant recruits) has long been known. This book looks closely at the Indian army in order to show precisely how collaboration worked to sustain a national empire and a local economy. Show More Show Less.
An Imaginary Rebellion: And How It Was Suppressed. An Account of the Punjab Disorders and the Working of Martial Law
Author: Amritsar 1919
Author: Kim A. WagnerPublisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300200358
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 373
Book Description
A powerful reassessment of a seminal moment in the history of India and the British Empire--the Amritsar Massacre--to mark its 100th anniversary The Amritsar Massacre of 1919 was a seminal moment in the history of the British Empire, yet it remains poorly understood. In this dramatic account, Kim A. Wagner details the perspectives of ordinary people and argues that General Dyer's order to open fire at Jallianwalla Bagh was an act of fear. Situating the massacre within the "deep" context of British colonial mentality and the local dynamics of Indian nationalism, Wagner provides a genuinely nuanced approach to the bloody history of the British Empire.
